Some people look at the events....and think.....I stand no chance
Some think.....thats just for all those guys on group (whatever)....I wouldn't be welcomed
Some think .....if I don't do well in the event, all those guys on group (whatever) will always screw with me
Some think.....I might get teamed up with a (pirate) (cop) (whatever)

good answer that is showing some of the reasons i did not take part of any event till now...
an other reason was for example my ship, or better the equipment of it. as i wanted take part an event the first time, i have seen that i have no chance against the strong weapons the other players have (i play CF since three weeks). now i have the right weapons and i am able to buy every ship i want. so this is not any more a reason =)
a reason too is my bad web connection. after reached a data limit, the speed of it is very low. it is enough for "normal" playing like discover systems or figth against NPCs or for an easy 1vs1 PvP. but i do not know how it works with 5,6,7 or more players. i do not want to be the reason for lagging or a server crash !
so now i'm waiting to have full speed again and then i will take part of events =)
i will do it only for fun to play against or together with other players. money is not the reason (it is not difficult to get much money in CF i think...). equipment will not be a reason too, because after some hours of playing you will know how to get all kind of it (perhaps something like "unique equipment" would be cool, but after 100 events there will be an "influation" of it when nearly every player has it. but perhaps something like this...). access to clan systems and the right to buy equipment there without asking for permission for a short period of time would be nice, but i cannot say if it is possible or it would be ok for the clans.
